I have 4 Hydra 26’s which are coming up to being 5 years old. 3 power supplies blew within 7 days about 2 weeks ago, and I’m expecting the 4th any time so I have a new one ready.

£65 is the price unfortunately, trust me I searched everywhere including the auction site.

There is one on Amazon for about £29 from China if you want to wait for the slow boat to get here. I think it had about a months delivery

Also I decided I didn’t want to risk blowing the light up for the sake of saving a few £’s!

I thought as much.. I did search and I found some from RS components which would suit. 36v 3a 10x5mm Jack. Just wasn’t sure if they were worth the risk
